Want to replace the thermostat (just had to do the water pump) and I'm wondering if a 180F thermostat is too cold.
I think the current thermostat is an 87C; the temp gauge stays in the middle of the dial with no overheating.

I found a 180 Wahler, brass with jiggle valve, at Advance Auto parts, in a Stant box.

Thanks.
